Gintama v.1

Gintama Vol. 1

Rating: Really liked it


When the Land of the Smaurai is overrun by Aliens, the enigmatic Gintoki decides he needs a new way to earn money. So, he becomes a do-it-all man. As long as he gets paid, he'll do it.

I can understand why ha110w33nm4n disliked Gintama. But when you say " have eney respect tword samurai dont read this pleas!!!!!!!" I highly disagree. Sorachi oftens uses honor and respect as themes in Gintama. Honor is a common quality associated with the Samurai therefore he is showing them respect. Plus, its a comedy.

Since its a comedy, there are jokes. And some of the jokes in Gintama require an aquired taste of humor.

The characters are unique and fun. There is actually a pretty large cast but no one is boring, in my opnion.

There's not really a plot but since it is a manga and a comedy, its not really required. Each chapter is a different story. It works by giving each chapter a small plot and development.

Gintama isn't for everyone but for the right people, it will be a great read.
